    This was a wonderful combination of flavours. Just the right amount of tartness and creamy chocolate. Great alternative to the regular bars on the market.

    I received this Brookside Chocolate Tablet Bar in Tart Cherry Crisp with Pomegranate Flavor to try for free in exchange for providing and honest review. This was the first bar my daughter and I decided to try as she is a huge cherry fan. Now, she's only five and a half, so take it for what it's worth, but this bar is her favorite of the three. I really enjoyed it as well. There are so many things going on but they all work together in harmony. The decadent dark chocolate, the fruity cherry and pomegranate flavors. It has the decadence of a high quality bar without being too rich or sugary sweet. The fruits add a nice, natural sweetness to the bar. I will definitely buy this again.

    Not a bad flavour combination. I liked the crispy parts. I could taste the combination of the cherry and the pomegranate flavours. Overall I found this chocolate bar to be a bit too sweet for my liking, but good if you just have a little taste.

    This bar was my and my husband's favourite of the three we sampled. The flavour is explosive! I definitely couldn't stop after one square of this bar. I like the tartness, to counter how chocolate can be really rich at times. As with all three bars, the quality of chocolate was pleasing - it was smooth and not too hard. And not bitter at all, considering it's dark chocolate. And we all liked the crispies in it.
    I wish that either the box or inner packaging was resealable, though, as the bars are too big and too rich to eat in one sitting (although I could do it if I was forced).
    I would definitely splurge on this again for a treat or gift.

    I was given the Brookside Chocolate Tablet Bar in Tart Cherry Crisp with Pomegranate Flavour for free to taste and review. All four members of my family tried this bar and none of us liked it. I was expecting a nice tart taste from the cherries and pomegranates but it was nonexistent. There was a bit of a chewy texture from the berries which was pleasant enough however, the grainy texture of the sugar was so unpleasant, I couldn't eat anymore. The sweetness of this bar was over the top and really took away from the dark chocolate. I wouldn't have known that it was dark chocolate if I hadn't read it on the label. I definitely will not be buying this chocolate bar.

    Received this to try and out of the three flavours this was by far the best. Really liked the cherry and pomegranate combination. The tart flavour of the cherry with dark chocolate balanced the sweet and sour. This flavour turned me into a dark chocolate lover. Definitely need to pick some up for the treat cupboard at home

    I really wanted to like this flavour as I usually love cherry-flavoured things but I'm still partial to it. I expected the bar to be more tart, just going by the name, but it was a little too sweet for my liking. When I shared it with my friends, they thought the sweetness was perfect and liked this flavour the best. Perhaps I like more subtle flavours in chocolate. I usually like really sweet things too so I was surprised by my reaction. Maybe my taste buds were off. Either way, I could see myself purchasing this either for myself so I can try it again or for my friends, since they all seemed to like this very much.

    As with the other bars, the chocolate is amazing. This bar had a decent amount of crisp which I love, but because the pomegranate is a larger gummy piece, those were a little bit of overkill. Didn't really taste any cherry. Still, dark chocolate and pomegranate are a nice combination and this would be my second choice over the mango option

    Great quality of chocolate as always from Brookside. Unique combination, but the two fruit flavours are well matched.

    This chocolate was delish! The gooey cherry bits and crispy bits were awesome paired with the chocolate. The dark chocolate tasted quite sweet with the cherry and pomegranate flavours. Even though the chocolate is sweet tasting, it definitely subsided my chocolate craving after a square or two. This wouldnt be a chocolate bar where I would sit down and eat the entire thing, instead i would savour it a little piece at a time. I would recomend trying this bar. It was my favourite of the three Chick Advisor sent me to review!
